Two Palestinian young prisoners on hunger strike for 30 days

The two Palestinian prisoners Fuad Assi, 30 and Adib Mafarjeh, 28, continued their hunger strike for 30 consecutive days in protest against their administrative detention.

AhlulBayt News Agency - The two Palestinian prisoners Fuad Assi, 30 and Adib Mafarjeh, 28, continued their hunger strike for 30 consecutive days in protest against their administrative detention.

Head of the Palestine Center for Prisoners Studies Osama Shahin reported that the two hunger strikers suffered serious health deterioration and started suffering severe fatigue and frequent fainting.

They also became unable to walk, he added.

Shahin charged that the Israeli prison service deliberately neglects the treatment of the two prisoners in an attempt to force them to end their strike.

Mafarjeh was moved to Elah solitary confinement in Beersheba despite his urgent need for medical treatment, he continued.

Shahin concluded by calling for activating prisoners’ issue and supporting Palestinian prisoners’ protest steps in Israeli jails.
